Get rid of embedded Google Maps info bubble

Found lots of advice instructing to change the parm iwloc= to null.  This did not work.  Setting the parm to "pause1" did -- http://mapki.com/wiki/Google_Map_Parameters
Specifically:
1. Find the location in Google Maps
2. Click Link then Customize and preview embedded map
3. Fuss with the marker but don't close the (ugly, too big) white address bubble.
4. Copy and paste the iframe code into your page.
5. Delete the whole second "See larger Map" link
6. Find the iwloc= parm and replace whatever's there with "pause1".

OR
Try this jQuery gmap plugin http://gmap.nurtext.de/
